Number of Servings: 1

Ingredients

    1 cup brewed coffee
    1/2 cup dry oatmeal
    1/2 T unsweetened cocoa powder
    1 packet splenda (or 1-2t sugar)

Tips

Can easily add in your favorite coffee additions for more indulgence. Milk/cream, caramel bits, dark chocolate shavings, coffee creamers, ect.


Directions

It's easy. When you make coffee in the morning, simply set aside 1 cup to use for this.

Use that 1 cup of coffee the way you would use water to cook oatmeal (either stovetop, microwave, or adding it hot to quick oats and letting it sit). This alone adds a wonderful flavor.

Stir in the cocoa powder and sweetener to the the oatmeal and enjoy!

Have a couple hardboiled eggs, or Greek Yogurt to go along with this for some protein

Serving Size: Makes 1 bowl

Number of Servings: 1

    Going to try this with Stevia in place of the Splenda--as splenda doesn't agree with me. - 1/16/18

    Incredible!
    Great,1 tablespoon of coco powder, (1/2 would have been fine) so added 1.5 cups of left over decaf coffee and some Monk Fruit sweetener, cinnamon &vanilla. Sprinkled with fiber one cereal & 1 tab reconstituted PB2 & almonds. McCann's quick oats cook up thicker then other brands, vary topping is fun - 5/26/17

    Incredible!
    I tried this and it was good. I have a few recipes that I use cocoa powder in. I really don't have a problem with bland foods of any kind because I like variety and am always trying new and different recipes. Thanks for the idea. - 3/2/14
